About this role

Nordic Learning Center is an ambitious school operation within municipal adult education, focused on offering high-quality vocational training programs. Our operation is built on the conviction that education should be accessible to everyone – regardless of life situation or previous experiences. Therefore, we offer flexible study formats that enable our students to study in the way that best suits their needs and circumstances. We value the personal interaction with each student and strive to create a safe, inclusive, and inspiring learning environment. As a locally rooted school, we consider it self-evident to build close relationships with students, the labor market, and municipalities. Nordic Learning Center has established school units in Täby, Järfälla, and Nacka. We are now seeking a principal for our unit in Täby with immediate start. The unit is new and plans to welcome its first students in January. About the Role Would you like to lead an evolving school operation where you can combine pedagogical leadership with strategic development work? We are seeking an engaged and goal-oriented principal who wants to play a central role in shaping and strengthening our organization going forward.

You find it stimulating to establish routines, create engagement, and be creative in your pedagogical leadership role. As principal, you have overall responsibility for the school's pedagogical development, quality assurance, and operational management. You lead and inspire the staff while actively identifying and developing opportunities that strengthen the school's position and contribute to long-term quality and sustainability.

We expect commitment and creativity in the role and see this as an opportunity for you to help shape the organization from the start. If you have high salary requirements, we encourage you to refrain from applying. Your duties will include: • Ensuring quality education and creating a positive learning environment for both students and staff. • Pedagogical leadership by coaching and developing the school's teachers and following up on teaching quality. • Strategic planning and development of the school's operations, including new educational opportunities and collaborations. • Financial responsibility including budget work, resource allocation, and result follow-up. • Collaboration with municipalities, business sector, and other external stakeholders to ensure relevant education and strengthen the school's network. • Responsibility for student health and support measures to ensure an inclusive school environment. Qualifications and Requirements: • Principal training and experience working as a principal, preferably in adult education. • Documented experience in pedagogical leadership and school development. • Experience with business development, financial responsibility, and strategic thinking in the education sector. • Good understanding of adult education's mission and regulations. • Strong communication skills and experience collaborating with various stakeholders. • Ability to inspire, lead, and develop staff. We Offer: • The opportunity to build and shape a new school operation from the ground up. • A cohesive and driven work environment where high work ethic and commitment permeate everything we do. • Great freedom in your assignment – you can test ideas, develop pedagogical concepts, and use your creativity to the fullest. • A dynamic everyday life where every initiative and effort makes a real difference for the school's development and students' learning. • Short decision-making paths in a flat organization that values collaboration, innovation, and quality. • Employment according to the independent school agreement through Almega, providing security in terms and conditions.
